I have decided to go back to my given birth name, John David.
This comes after 10 years of having the name Premananda, given by my friend Swami Satchitananda, master of Anandashram in Kerala.
The unconditional love pointed to in 'Premananda' has become embodied in my life and continues to expand.
The name change reflects a recent inner shift and the expansion of my outer work in Ukraine and Spain.

When we leave our stories and dramas behind
and we come to stillness.
It's absolutely beautiful because it's so incredibly simple.
You don't need anything from the outside.
